Abstract

Abstract Complete regioselective 1,6-hydrosilylation of dimethyl cis,cis-muconate took place by using trialkylsilanes in the presence of RhCl(PPh3)3 as a catalyst. The novel, functionalized ketene silyl acetal thus obtained exhibited moderate electrophilic properties. Hydrosilylation of trans,trans-muconate under similar conditions gave only a 3,4-adduct, whereas that of trans,cis-muconate resulted in a complicated mixture of adducts but for a 1,6-adduct.
